Indian American voters constitute 1%, so this is a very homeopathic revenge.

As expected, @Swiggy has deleted the tweet. 0 Spine.
Swiggy has indirectly exposed the state of Indian economy and exposed Narendra Modi. This tweet will be deleted soon.

Guess this is post-death-penalty “justice” system, belonging to a post-murder society. Killing is too easy, too boring. Let’s make them suffer with gory state sponsored violence. Somehow that will prevent crimes fear of encounter did not.
Andhra Pradesh Chainsaw horror accused, 21 year old Hemanth’s right leg was amputated by doctors at Anantapur Government Hospital late last night. Police fired six rounds on Hemanth on Sunday night. He attacked two class tenth girls in their classroom at Raptadu Zilla Parishad School. After the police firing, apparently Hemanth developed gangrene in the right leg. Court’s intervention was sorted and permission was granted to amputate. Hemanth attacked the 15 year old victim for rejecting his “love” proposal. She is undergoing treatment at Bangalore, Karnataka and as per the latest medical bulletin, she is recovering well. Hemanth who is an orphan and a relative of the victim was raised by one of his aunts. He apparently is a ganja addict and was thrown away from the house because of his wayward behavior. So far, no one in his family came to visit Hemanth.

Where has Nikhil been hiding? Does he really think Tamil Nadu and Gujarat, Telangana and Karnataka are all super cooperative & dont compete with each other? They do all this every day.
🚨 Nikhil Kamath wants 🇮🇳 India to learn from 🇨🇳 China's model of competitive governance. He suggests: - States should compete to attract investments - Chief Ministers should operate like CEOs - States should prioritise economic growth, innovation and development "Maybe the chief minister of a state could operate like the CEO of the state." Can Indian leaders adopt such a model of competitive governance? 🇮🇳

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Several figures here aren’t federal results or NY-specific. The $472B combines US wide pledges: Micron's $250B is nationwide (NY site $100B) Anthropic's $50B covers TX and NY. The 48% murder drop is from NY's state run GIVE program (28 departments, Jan – May 2026). arkolith.com/news/news-micr… therepublic.com/?p=843020 governor.ny.gov/news/safer-str…
